I missed the boat on National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day, but I made up for it this morning.

I happily stumbled upon The Peanut Butter Boy's Peanut Butter and Jelly Oatmeal and got inspired. It's such an obvious combination, but it truly had never occurred to me to make it. Be honest, how many of you have actually eaten it? Eh, it could very well be that I'm just completely oblivious and unworthy of being associated with foodies.

I've yet to experiment enough with peanut butter. I made some cookies, but to me they were horrid. Everyone else seemed to think they were ok. I have to have another date with peanut butter soon again.

Please don't yell at me for going to SuperWalmart's...but I have found an incredible oatmeal there...made by Sturm's...comes in Blueberry or Cranberry...it's whole grain with the addition of Flaxseed and Steroids....oh...and no sugar added (contains phenylalanine), so my diabetic husband can have it...yes, it does say naturally and artificially flavored...but it's lower in sodium than most (90 mg a serving) and higer in fiber (Dietary 6g, Soluble 4g) and has 4g of protein.

*Bow*. I'm glad I could be of service =). I love Kashi and all their products. The oatmeal is good, but I love their Go Lean and Go Lean Crunch cereals. The Go Lean is a little bit healthier but the Go Lean Crunch tastes unbelievable. I buy a box of each and mix them together in a bag and use that in yogurt and things.

So you liked it with the blueberry? I've used blueberry jam and it's good but I think the blueberry flavor gets lost a little bit, although I guess it depends how sweet your jam is or how much you use. Or maybe I'm just chemically, physically and psychologically addicted to strawberry.
